Quinton McHaffie
Co-Founder / Global Sales Director
Quinton McHaffie started his first business trading and selling comic books in his community. It taught him the thing that still drives everything he does today: people do not buy products, they buy connection. That belief became the foundation of Social Places, the AI-powered MarTech platform he co-founded with Ashleigh Wainstein in 2013, which today powers 700+ global brands across 80,000+ communities. As Global Sales Director he spends his days talking to multi-location brands about what is changing in local search, from listings and reviews to AI assistants answering the questions customers used to type into Google, and he writes from that front line. A neurodivergence advocate, he believes the best innovations are built by people who think differently and finish what they start.
